A potluck lunch, gift exchange, and a hands-on workshop highlighted the group’s annual holiday gathering
Wakefield, MA — The Wakefield Arts and Crafts Society met on Tuesday, Dec 9 for a festive holiday meeting. We had a delicious potluck lunch and a gift swap. Many handmade gifts were exchanged, which we all enjoyed seeing, giving, and receiving.
The workshop was a mini decorative kimono with beautiful oriental style fabric. Jo Ann Rondelli led the workshop and also provided written instructions should we want to duplicate it at home. Shown in the photo left to right are Cathy Bartlett, Theresa Wright, Jo Ann Rondelli, Sandy Bates, Elaine Grosso, and Robin Gorfine.
Next month our workshop is Gelli printing with Robin Gorfine.
